Reference: R. O. Meyer collection, composition confirmed by EDS/WDS analysis and morphological consistency
β“˜ Pyrite
Formula: FeS2
Description: Massive pyrite forms a good percentage of the K1 tailing pile. Often it is altering, but occasionally fresh pieces are vuggy and host nice crystals of pyrite to about 2 mm in size that are often associated with beautiful pale green to golden transparent sphalerite crystals, also to about 2 mm. Pyrite also occurs at K2, in groups of larger crystals exhibiting parallel growth. The crystals at K2 are up to about 1 cm in size.

Formula: MnCO3
Description: At K1, banded rhodochrosite/galena/sphalerite forms a significant portion of the rock at hand. This material can be attractive and has a potential for nice polished specimens. Really good material is very uncommon, though. Rhodochrosite also occurs in nice pink to pinkish-tan bladed crystals to about 1 cm in size.
Reference: http://www.em.gov.bc.ca/cf/minfile/search/search.cfm?mode=capbib&minfilno=092HNW024

Reference: R. O. Meyer collection.
β“˜ Sphalerite
Formula: ZnS
Description: Found at both K1 and K2, in black crystals approaching 2 cm. Sphalerite is also a major constituent of the banded ore at K1. The best examples of sphalerite at the Keystone mine are from K1, are transparent green, golden, or red in color, are brilliant, and typically are about 1-2 mm in size. Transparent colorless inner zones have been observed in some of the black sphalerite crystals at K2.

βœͺ 'Tetrahedrite Subgroup var. Silver-bearing Tetrahedrite'
Formula: (Cu,Ag)6[Cu4(Fe,Zn)2]Sb4S13
Description: At K1, originally referred to as freibergite, analysis revealed far too little silver for that species. Superb micro-sized lustrous crystals to 5mm, occasionally growing in cavities of pick rhodochrosite, which makes for very attractive specimens.
Reference: R. O. Meyer collection, composition confirmed by EDS/WDS analysis and morphological consistency
β“˜ 'Thomsonite Subgroup'
Reference: Tschernich, R. (1992): Zeolites of the World, p.100, 492

β“˜ Xanthoconite
Formula: Ag3AsS3
Description: At K1, two crystals, the largest about 3mm across, and one cleavage fragment, were found in one rock, associated with ruby silver and polybasite. Analysis showed both Arsenic and Antimony, but the form and color are consistent with xanthoconite.
Reference: R. O. Meyer collection, composition confirmed by EDS/WDS analysis and morphological consistency
